Increase Liquor Sales In Ohio

So I am watching the news this morning and I hear that Ohio has a 5% increase in liquor sales from last year. Hmmm, I wonder, could it have anything to do with Ohio being one of the hardest hit states for job loss? (being sarcastic)...LOL... Sounds like all the job loss here is turning people to drink. Yes, Ohio needed an increase in something, but I'm thinking an increase in liquor is not what we were looking for.... LOL.
